Le only predictions known to have been uttered were to the effect-1, that a suspension of specie pay ments would rapidly take place ; 2, that the attempt to raise a revenue by a further increase of the pro tective tariff and also by direct taxation would prove a failure ; and 3, that an amount of debt would be incurred such as to warrant serious apprehension as to the probability of its being ultimately redeemed or the dividends upon it being paid, except in ex.( tremely depreciated paper. The first two of these have been fulfilled, and Mr Cobden has already in dicated his own opinion as to the prospects of the last. \,,,.......................„....

The reporter should be independent, which he would not be if he had an editor above him, In the Queen's Bench reports the reporter who did not report the case revised it and made friendly sug gestions, and that system worked well. The amendment having been seconded, Mr DENMAN said, having been most reluctantly placed on the committee, and having attended a great number of the meetings, he wished to state his reasons for dissenting from the recommendations of the committee. The principal objection to the present system, if it could be called so, was that they were liable to have good reports stopped for want of sufficient support, and in consequence there was a want of continuity in the reports. Now, if this scheme were to fail, of course they added most seriously to- thut sort of incouve • nience, and they introduced into the profession an illusory good which turned out to be an evil--a fresh set of reports which lived only for a time, and flourished j ust long enough to drive out of the field other reports. On the other hand, if they were successful, they could be so only by creating a fearful monopoly, and when they had established a monopoly the reports would soon become practically useless. A few words as to the alleged present evils. Mr Daniel had glibly assumed that the evils were so great that they could not be removed without gigantic scheme like this. Now, he be lieved that a meeting inLincoln's-inn would consist mainly of members of the Chancery bar. (Giles of " No; no," and "Yes, yes.") He believed that if that meeting were polled two-thirds of it would be found to be Chancery barristers. He believed that the two cases, that of the common law bar and that of the Chancery bar, were distinct.- - In-Ohancery the judgment went on a mixed statement of law and fact, and the reports were ten times as difficult to prepare as those at common law. He believed that was one reason why the members of the Chancery bar were more anxious for a change in the system than the common law bar. Mr MORGAN objected to that part of the report which re lated to the retaining of the present authorised reporters, and moved an amendment that it be expunged, and that words be substituted authorising the council to treat with them as to the terms on which they will be willing to die. continue their reports. 1859 Iron Ore. 65,679 tone.

From time immemorial it has been customary for the Sultans to send Commissioners to Tunis, and for the B,ys to depute Envoys to Constantinopl e either to compliment the Sultans an their acces.ion to the throne, or to solicit their own firman o i" in vestiture, or en other matters connected with the affairs of the two nJuntries. At the breaking out of "the revolt the Sultan despatched an Imperial Commissioner to Tunis to report on the state of affairs; and, in return, the Bey had formed a resolution of sending an Envoy to thank his Imperial Majesty tor the interest he had evinced in passing events. According to custom, he announced his intention to the foreign repre sentatives, in order to introduce from them - letters of intro duction for his Envoy to the Ambassador at Constantinople ; but the French Consul, upon being made aware of the Bey's intention, proceeded immediately to his Highness and' re monstrated in the strongest possible terms against an Envoy being sent to the Sultan without the previous sanction of the' French Government. He insisted that it was an Anglo- Turkish intrigue, which he would not tolerate. In vain did the Bey endeavour to explain that it was customary both to receive and to send Envoys, and that in the present instance it was an act of courtesy towards the Sultan, who was the head of all Mussulman nations, and that nothing more was either meant or intended. The Consul would expect no ex plantion, said that the Envoy could not leave without his permission, bat that he would dispatch an ariso to Cagliaro with a telegram to Paris, and that until he received a reply the departure of the Envoy must be posteoned. His highness having. however, replied to his peremptory lan.. guage that he was at libertyto send for instructions,but that ho did not intend to alter his resolution of showing respect to the Sultan by deputing General Khaireddin to convey to him his grateful thanks, the French Consul rose, evinced much impatience, and left the room, after crying out " No no 1 no:I" when he refused to take the band which the Bey had offered to him. This unfortunate incident, coupled with a previous threat of sinking the Sultan's Commis sioner when he arrived in May last, in case he should at tempt to land, determined the Bey, with a view to avoid further embarrassments, to hasten the departure of his Envoy, who was therefore directed to proceed en his journey on the 14th instead of the 17th instant. General Khaireddin consequently embarked on Ward the Tunisian steamer Bechir about half-past 6in the evening, but a French officer was sent to him on the part of the com mandant of the ironclad Invincible, stationed at the G °lotto, to dissuade him from proceeding on his journey; and when he was told that he was bound to execute his orders the officer announced to him that, in that case, he would be prevented. General Khaireddin then said that he should BROKERS.

Mr INCE, who spoke amid much interruption, contended that the scheme could not answer, as it would be impossible to obtain the number of subscribers required. Mr HEMMING (who had been called uppn) said the pre sent system was very objectionable, and he should delight in nothing so much as any leasable scheme for the estab lishment of a better system. But he was not quite satisfied with this scheme, and he thought before they were called upon to give an opinion Mr Daniel's figures, which were all couleur de rose as he read them, should be placed before them, and that they should have some time to examine them. The scheme ought to be tried if there was a sound basis for it, but they ought to have the opportunity of ascer taining whether it had a sound basis. He moved as an amendment "That the committee be requested to circulate among the bar the Inaneial data on which their scheme is based, and the result of the appeal made for subscriptions, and any other information in their possession which would assist the bar in forming an opinion on the principle and feasibility of the project."

John M'Kay, chemist, 119, George-street Yesterday afternoon a meeting of members of the bar convened by the Attorney-General, was held in the Dining. hall of Lincoln's-inn, to take into consideration the scheme of reporting recommended by the committee appointed on Dec. 2, 1863. The meeting was numerously attended. The ATTORNEY-GENERAL, on taking the chair, said ho would state in a few words why the meeting had been con• voned. On Dec. 2 last year a meeting of the bar was called upon a requisition sent to him, and at that meeting a coin mittePwas appointed, to consider whether any plan could be proposed for the amendment of the present system of editing, and preparing, and publishing law reports. The committee whioh was appointed consisted of gentlemen eminent in their profession, both as Queen's counsel and behind the bar, and they reported on June 14. Their report and recommendations had been widely circulated, and it had been thought proper that the bar should have the opportu nity of meeting and considering whether the subject was ripe for action or not, and accordingly a meeting was held there on July 2, when Mr Amphlett moved the adoption of _ _ the report, and Mr Best and Mr Miller moved an amend ment; and an amendment was eventually carried that the further consideration of the matter should be postponed till a day to be fixed in November by the Attorney -General. He would now call on Mr Daniel to move the first resolu tion in the place of Mr Amphlett, who, ho was sorry to say, was absent in consequence of a domestic bereavement. Mr DANIEL, Q.C., said ho would not go over the old round of the evils of the present system. He would _neither " • e— "—eh- eeetegee to- he der 4 ived from standard reports, if such cou ld be esteblishe nut ho would at once proceed to bring before them the scheme which the committee had devised as a practical remedy fora practical grievance. He would look at it in a commercial point of view, sa that they might consider whet her it was likely to be self-supporting. The commit tee sought to obtain information as to the circulation of the authorised reports, as they were called, previous to the cemmencement of the present system of competition. They wont back to the time of Barnewall and Cresswell and MeH vale, and Jacob and Walker, to the years 1824 and 1625, the system of competition not beginning till the years 1832 or 1833. They ascertained from various sources that the regular issue of the Queen's Bench reports in 1824 and 1826 up to the end of Barnewell and Cresswell was 4,000, and the regular issue of the Chancery reports was 2,000. Well, then, basing themselves on the 2,000, which was the small est amount of circulation existing 40 years ago, the com mittee endeavoured to ascertain whether on that small circulation a scheme could be devised which, commercially speaking, would be self-supporting at a subscription of five guineas per annum, and for that purpose the committee endeavoured, through several of its members, to obtain information from those who were competent to give it. He placed himself in communication with Messrs Cloves, the printers, of Duke-street, Stamford-street, and requested them to furnish him with the cost price of a set of reports, selecting for the purpose one of the most expensive of the present authorised reports—Clark's House of Lords Reports —a part which was charged to the profession at 12s 6d, and he requested them to give him an estimate of the cost of printing, :paper, sale, and distribution of each such part, excluding from it all publisher's commission and the pro prietor's profit. The result was that for an issue of 500 the cost would be is 101 d—of 1,000, is 4d—of 2,000, is Id—of 3,000, 111 d—of 4,000, 10d—and of 5,000, 10Id per copy of that which was now charged to the profession at 12s 6d. These figures seemed to him so striking that if true he could not avoid coming to the conclusion that there was a radical defect in the present system, as regarded consumers. Mr Hemming, to whom he showed these figures, pointed out that there was an omission of one item for correcting the press. That would be small if the cases were carefully edited, as it was proposed they should be, before being sent to the printers, but he had added 75 per cent of the cost of composition, and that would increase the 101 d to 11d. These figurescoincided with others obtained by Mr Lindley, with information given them by Mr Longueville Giffard, and they coincided also with the results of the reports of the Law Amendment Society published in 1852 and 1853. Fol lowing these data, the report proceeded upon the assumption that the salaries in the aggregate would be £10,700 a-year, and that the first moiety of the salaries should be guaranteed out of the consolidated or suitors' fund. Individually he had no desire such a source should be resorted to; he did not think it would be necessary, and he did not think it would be granted if it were asked for, and the committee re commend that in case payment of the first moiety of th• salaries should not be obtained out of the consolidated or suitors' fund, it should be made a term of contract with the printers or publishers that they should pay it out of the proceeds of the sale of the reports. This scheme had been spoken of as unbusinesslike ; but Mr Westlake, whose com petency no one would doubt, had gone through the figures, and was satisfied they were rather over thwn under esti mated. Not satisfied with this, however, he went last Sa turday to Mr Clewed' counting-house, and putting this do cument into his hand asked him to take it, and appended to it this question, "Assuming that the reports in each year would make eight octavo volumes of 800 pages each, in your opinion, without any capital being guaranteed from anyother quarter, would any printer undertake it 2" and the answer was—" I would rather not give a hypothetical opinion ; we are quite willing to undertake it on the above conditions. Do not let it be supposed we are tendering for such a thing, but I should be very much surprised if any printer with a au& cient capital would return you any other answer." It must not be supposed that there would be 35 per cent. for publisher's commission, but the actual cost of one set of standard reports, making up eight volumes per annum, could be had on a circulation of 2,000 copies, at 5 guineas per annum, that being the circulation which, before corn petition began, was the legitimate circulation of chancery reports. And he thought that when they considered the immense increase in the members of the pro fession, and how the reports of the English courts ourhink they y on w ie e s re and iwnearegrernetgparadretdef theas galuehthe,orhietiedsin did not t reasonable in expecting that the standard reports at five guineas a set per annum would be self-supporting. He had assumed that eight volumes a year would be printed. He believed that in that there was an error, but an error on the side of excess, because one of the conditions of the system suggested would be that there should be proper judgment in the selection of the cases, which would considerably re duce the number. In conclusion, he moved that the report of the committee be adopted. Mr DICKENSON seconded. Mr W. M. BEST moved an amendment to the effect that the words "that the reports shall be prepared by reporters under the supervision of editors," be omitted. If the editors were merely to read the reports to correct typographical errors there could be no objection, except that they were to receive £6OO a-year for that which a clerk could do. But if they were to suppress or alter the reports there would arise I notice of the legislature, with a view to their amendment.'l The Chairman then put the various amendments to the meeting seriatim, and they were all negatived by a large majority, except Mr Hemming's, on which apparently about an equal number of hands were held up for and against, and the chairman said there must be a division. Tellers were appointed, and the result was that there were for the amendment 111, against it 126, and it was consequently negatived. The original motion was then put and carried. Mr DANIEL then moved—" That the Attorney-Genera be requested, as president of this meeting, to communicate the resolution adopting the report to the Lord Chancellor and the Benchers of the Inns of Court, to the S)ciety of Sergeants' Inn, and to the Incorporated Law SLciety, with a request on the part of the meeting that they may seve rally be pleased to further the objects of the scheme." He said-that from every quark'. of Eng,htnd they hai received . . o.mmtmicatione sanctioning the proceedings of the com mittee, and expressing hopes for the SUCCCPB of the scheme. A BARRISTER—What is the number of subscriptions Mr DANlEL—Something under 300, (Cries of "Oh.") Could they expect it .to be otherwise ? (Cries of "Cer tainly not," and laughter.) The motion was then oarried unanimously, and votes of thanks having been given to the Attorney-General for his conduct in the chair, and to the committee for the trouble hey have taken in the matter, the meeting separated. Mr. Cobden on American Finance. (From the limes' City Article.) Attention has been called to the statements made last week by Mr Cobden on American finance in his speech' at Rochdale. Mr Cobden is reported to have said that the annual amount which Mr Glad. stone is now drawing from this country in time of peace is very nearly the same as the amount of the present Federal expenditure, assuming that expen diture to be £2,000,000 dole. per diem, and "having regard to the depreciation of American currency and the present rate of exchange." Furthermore he asked, " Why is it that the American States have laughed to scorn the prediction of all our writers on finance who told them that they could not go on with the war for six months without com• ing to Europe for a loan ? How is it that they have deceived and disappointed the whole of Europe ?'' —a question to which, in the midst of the cheers of his audience, he immediately replied by intimating that the whole secret lay in the fact that the Ame. ricans, by their economical government, had saved 10 millions sterling per annum for the past 40 years and had thus accumulated a " fabulous" sum to en able them to pass triumphantly through their pre sent terrific strain. It seems scarcely credible that Mr Cobden could have made these assertions. In the first place, by his announcement that an expenditure of 2,000,000 dole. per diem, or £146,000,000 ster. ling per annum, is to be considered only about equal to our own expenditure of £70,000,000, " having regard to the depreciation of the American cur rency," he notifies to all the world, not only that the Americans never intend to redeem their note liabilities at par, but that it is quite proper for them at once to base their calculations upon this system of repudiation. Next, when he asks how it is that the Americans have langhed to scorn the prediction regarding their coming to Europe for a loan, and proceeds to account for it by their haring during the last 49 years somewhere accumulated 400 mil- lions sterling at compound interest, he simply in vents a reason for a fact which has no existence. Throughout the entire war the Americans have so besieged Europe for pecuniary assistance that they are estimated to have obtained from Germany alone 40 millions sterling, while Holland has likewise contributed in proportionate abund ance. As far as this country and France are con• cerned, we have had special deputations from Wash. ington to ascertain our inclinations, and if the sums procured from us have not been of the magnitude anticipated it has been from no neglect on the part of the Federal Government. As to the " fabulous accumulations" of 40 years at compound interest, their reality has yet to be demonstrated, since dur ing the whole of that period America has found it necessary to appeal to Europe, and chiefly to England—the country which Mr Cobden accuses of having hopelessly wasted its substance—for the capital to carry out all the public works by which she has developed her resources. Moreover, even supposing thecae savings to have been otherwise than imaginary, many people would think it better not to save at all than to do so in three years' saturnalia of carnage and destruction. The fact is, that the Americans have not "deceived and disappoi n t e d t h e whole of Europe," and there is reason to fear that if such a resalt is to be witnessed it will not be from the astounding accumulations present to Mr Cob. den's mind, bat from the adoption of Mr Cobden's mode of reckoning the expenditure of & borrowed dollar not at 4s 2d, but only at is 6d, As to the Americans laughing to scorn the predictions of the financial writers of this country, it would be more charitable to them to assume that even if they con sidered us in error they would abstain from 1 h aug • ing us to scorn, since at all events among financial writers there has been no disposition except to warn them of dangers which Englishmen, accustomed to follows instructions, and would only yield to superior force, as ho was not authorised to lose the steamer and sacrifice the lives of the crew. Re gave the officer sufficient time to carry his answer to the captain of the Invincible, which wan all this time firing rockets and burning blue lights, when'ho weighed anchor and at half steam passed the ironclad. When about 1,000 yards ahead of her the Invincible chased the Tunisian steamer, which put on full steam, and kept ahead of her pursuer until they both neared the island of Zembri, at the entrance of the bay, when the ,Tunisian steamer boldly passed through the straits between the island and the mainland. It being perilous for a large vessel to attempt the passage at night, the Invincible had no other alterna tive but either to make the circuit of the island or return to her anchorage. She preferred the latter course, and the Tunisian steamer and Envoy thus escaped being captured in Tunisian waters by the vessel of a foreign and a friendly Power. This affair, which is attributed to the political intempe rance of the French representative, has created a very pain ful sensation in Tunis. It has utterly disgusted tho sian authorities, and it has humbled the Europeans to think that so open a violation of every principle of public right and international law should be perpetrated by the agent of a great and powerful nation against a weak Government which it pretends to protect against the encroachments of others. POLICE INTELLIGENCE.--Rov. 28.. _.,,...___________ I WORSHIP-STREE f.__ —Mr West, from the offices of Messrs Shaen and Roscoe, solicitors to the Society tor the Protection of Women and Children, accompanied by In spector Bywater, ci the N division, applied to Mr Ellison for a warrant to apprehend a woman tor abduction. Mr Wost,said his application was for a warrant against a woman named Sarah Wilson, fur abducting a little girl, seven years old, from her mother's house at Homer;on, un der circumstances which were somewhat peculiar. In Jan. last the society prosecuted at this court a Frenchman, named Jules Rimbaut, residing at Hackney, for an indecent assault upon his servant girl, a young woman named Emily Allen, and the prisoner was committed for trial at the Central Cri minal Court, bail being accepted for his future appearance. Before the trial could come on the ease was removed, on the motion of the prisoner, into the Court of Qaeen's Bench, where it had remained ever since until Saturday. In the interval various offers had been made to the mother of the girl to settle the matter, but had been positively refused by her. A few weeks ago a woman, who called herself MIS Wilson, took a cottage named Percy Cottage, at the corner of the street that Mrs Allen lived in. This woman con trived to introduce herself to and get somewhat intimate with the prosecutrix and her family, and took another of the girls, named Ellen, 11 years of age, into her service. A few days after that sirs Wilson endeavoured to prevail upon Mrs Allen to allow her to take her younger girl, Clara, only seven years old, with her for a trip into the country, as it would do her a deal of good, she said ; but Mrs Allen re fused, and though a suggestion was made for the elder girl Emily, the prosecutrix in the case against Rimbant, to ac company the child, no assent whatever was given to it. On Wednesday morning, at half-past 7 o'clock, while Mrs Allen was absent from home, the woman Wilson called at the house, and took away both Emily and Clara, as she said to go into the country, and with a promise to their sisters to bring them both back in the evening. They were not, however, brought back in the evening, and nothing more had been heard of them till Friday, when Mrs Allen re ceived the following letter from Mrs Wilson, which, as might be seen, contained no indication of the place they had gone to, beyond the two postmarks of Lewes and New haven, which were stamped on the envelope : " Thursday Morning. "My dear Mrs Allen,—l hope you will reconcile yourself about Emily and little Clara; she is enjoying herself, and she seems very happy. I cannot say what day I shall bring them back to you, for Mr Wilson is going to give ua a few days' enjoyment in the country; it is therefore very difficult to say when ho will let me return, but I shall buy them a few things they will want. In the meantime send us word. They aro safo. Ellen must have a treat when we return.—l am, dear Mrs Allen, yours truly. "Mrs WILSoN. "Mrs Allen, Cobden-terrace, King's-road' llomerton." No information had been obtained about either girl since. With regard to the young woman Emily, it was, of course, impossible to saywhether she was stopping awayvoluntarily or was kept away ; but with regard to the child Clara, her mother, a poor widow, was in the deepest distress and un certainty, and his application was for a warrant to be placed in:the hands of Inspector Bywater, who knew both children and would be able to follow them. The society bad made enquiries at the house where the woman Wilson had been living, and the landlady said she had coma thole without reference, remained a few weeks only, and that she knew nothing whatever about her. These facts had been put into the form of affidavits, which had been read by Mr Sergeant Parry in the Queen's Bench, and the Chief Justice had in. consequence adjourned the case till the next sittings. Under these circumstances, he thought no time should be lost in obtaining a warrent, as Newhaven was on the way to tho Continent, where the girls might be taken, and the person, charged was a Frenchman. Mr Ellison asked whether it was not somewhat premas ture to apply, and whether, after all, the letters might not be meant aa a blind. Mr West thought not. It was sufficient, he apprehended, to establish the offence if the child had been taken away, without the consent of the parents, for a single day. These: offences were generally committed by men, but he thought it made no difference that in this case the offender was V. woman. Mr Brard, who was present on other business, mentioned a cese in point before l‘lr Arnold at Westminster Court, where a woman named Emmett was charged with taking away a girl who was a good singer, and for whom she had got enE,Pagent:nts at Music halls in the provinces, Mr Ellison granted the warrant,which was placed in the hands of Inspector Bywater.
